Emergency Dental Care at VHD Dental – We’ve Got You Covered
At VHD Dental, we offer an on-call dental service beyond our regular office hours, ensuring you're never left without care when you need it most.
Important Note: Please remember, we are not physically present at the practice 24/7. Always call us first to arrange a time for us to meet you at the clinic. Be sure to describe your symptoms in detail, so we can be fully prepared for your treatment. In some cases, we may advise you to go to the hospital instead of the dentist, depending on the severity of your condition.
Finding a dentist during late hours or weekends can be challenging, especially if you’re looking for someone who speaks your language. At VHD Dental, we’re fluent in German, Spanish, and English, so you can feel comfortable communicating with us at any time.
What qualifies as a dental emergency?
Here are some common issues that may require urgent treatment outside of regular hours:
- Severe swelling and pain due to acute inflammation, especially if painkillers don’t help.
- Uncontrolled bleeding following a dental procedure, such as after a tooth extraction or implant surgery.
- Oral or jaw trauma, including broken teeth, split lips, or tongue injuries caused by accidents.

If you've been dealing with a chronic issue for some time, we kindly ask that you avoid calling us in the middle of the night. We must prioritize true emergencies, and we want to ensure we’re well-rested and able to respond effectively if there’s a more serious case that same night.
